This was published in 1840, the author attaining
only 1500 of his proposed 2500 species. No actual
illustrations were prepared, Rafinesque intending
actual botanical specimens to "illustrate" his
species. The original work closes with p. 200.

PHILADELPHIA.
Collected, ascertained and described between
1815 & 1840.
Of the self-figures of this Work, only 5 co-
pies can be prepared, whereof 4 of small folio
size, will be sold at $ 10 for each volume or
Century — one containing the largest specimens,
often exceedingly beautiful, and put up in large
folio paper, will be held at .$20 for each Cen-
tury— one Century consisting of Unique Spe-
cimens (probably in no other collection) will be
held at $50; of this 4 sets of drawing will be
made if required at the same price.
The Octavo Text, of which 100 copies will
be printed,shall be sold at 10 cents per Century
or 50 cents for each part of 5 centuries.

plants — also of Medical plants — also of Agricul-

INTRODUCTION.
Although I am a Draftsman and can both
draw and paint the plants that I collect, yet the
expense of time in doing so, with the cost of en-
graving and colouring the drawings, are so
great that I have but seldom availed myself of
my talent and opportunities to publish costly
figures of new or rare plants. I have preferred
and I do now again prefer giving the specimen^
themselves for authentic figures. This can be
done as cheap or cheaper than by multiplied
figures : many splendid works of Iconographi-
cal Botany are often published at much higher
rates. Copied figures are not always accurate,
nor expressing many minute characters of sur-
face &c, and some botanists are not satisfied un-
til they can examine the original specimens of
discoverers or improvers ; or when wishing to
detract from the merit of vast botanical resear-
ches, they deny the accuracy of whatever they
cannot verify.
This Autikon of 2500 figures by specimens
will be the best answer to any vain attempt to
depreciate my discoveries and researches —
although I have 5000 fine plants to illustrate in
this manner, I have selected for this work, the
rarest or new, else the finest or unfigured; such
as will illustrate my botanical works and im-
provements, particularly those that shall be
omitted in the North American Flora, lately
undertaken jointly by Torrey,Gray and Nuttal,
who have overlooked or left unnoticed many of
our New Genera and Species, because either
not met by them, or blended with others when
seen in fields or herbals. Whence the need of
giving sometimes the figures of akin species for
contrast,

\ INTRODICTION.
Whenever the plants have ah*eady been
named and described by myself or others, It will
be so stated, with a reference to the works
where published. If yet new or undescribed,
their synoptical description will be given ; also
their locality and some occasional remarks.
The principal works of mine, where such
New Genera and Species have chiefly been
described already, are the following.

a synonym, in case it is also a blunder. The

are a character of this group, omitted by over-

lene by capsule unilocular, calix clavate lOner-

and reform, of which I show the bases here ; it
was preposterous to unite 150 sp. with calix
swelled, campanulate, oval, oboval, clavate,
terete &c, smooth or nerved or winged, petals
entire or divided, with or without crowns, cap-
sule 1 or 3 locuiar. The subg. of Ottho and Bee.
are more by habit than characters and often
badly named. — The real Silene Raf. ought to
have calix tubular obi, or terete, capsule Slocu-

This Century includes 20 N. G. whereof 7
now first described, with 36 N. sp, now descri-
bed.
Therefore this first part or series of the Au-
TiKON includes in 5 Centuries, the illustrations
of 112 New Genera of mine, with the descrip-
tions of 38 hitherto undescribed. Also the des-
criptions and figures of 132 New species, with
the illustrations of twice as many described
elsewhere. It is likewise replete with new facts,
remarks, observations, notes, criticisms, local-
ties &c, forming a vast mass of novelties and
improvements.
Corrections. I had a previous Stelmanis in
ft, tel. 166, therefore read A nistelma instead of
it at article 89.
Even if Macuillamia 332 should be the real
type o^Herpestis this name is identic with Her-
pestes in Zoology previous I believe ; but Mon-
niera and JHLabershamia are distinct. I have

nom Sclerocladus. This rare tree has been
put into 3 G. by turns Sideroxylum, Bumelia

and Chrysophylum, — Sclerozus means hard
branches, they are brown rugose, leaves petio-
late cuneate acute or obtuse, reticulate above,
glaucous silky hairy benpath : flowers fascicu-
late on long peduncles, calix camp, rufous, 5
lobes obt. unequal, corolla rather longer. My
specimens are inerme, from Florida.

nosa in new flora, but it appears peculiar, t
506, Bum 1 serrulata R. n. fl. 548 — Alaba-
ma, a doubtful shrub, since flowers lacking:
there are many such in- Florida and Alabama,
even when flowers known, as the 3 next till 509.
507, Bum ? denticulata R. n. fl. 547, cer-
tainly no Bumelia, I was deceived by Collins
label ; he and I have destroyed all the flowers
except 2 to analyze this singular tree, which 1
compared with Nyssa dentictdata and SchU
zandra, both akin in leaves, but not in flowers.
It is nearer to my G. Lomilis, but I have fixt it
protem as follows.

equal calix &c, from ScHizandra hy many pe-
culiarities, and yet it may be of same family or
CENT. VI. 75
another link with Fothergilla, Hamamelis Slc

obovatisque glabris,venis reticulatis, basi acutis,
apice sepe acum, margine parce dentatis, pe-
dunc. fihf. unifl. extraxil. petiolis equante —
Florida, leaves very thin biuncial, flowers 3
times as large as in Nyssa, incarnate.
508, LoMiLis ciliata Raf. alsogr, 1, 2. Com-
pare with last and with next, certainly neither
like Nyssa nor Schizandra.

fuscatis rugosis, fol. subsessilib. obovat. acut. in-
tegris ciliolatis glabris, subtus glaucis. drupis
sessilib. ovatis acutis levis — Alabama. I thought
I'had another sp. of Lornilis, but it agrees in
nothing but the ciliolate leaves, and the fruit is
ixr. in Forrestiera, but I have not the flowers :
akin also to For. dislichuy and it may form
another G. with it when flowers known. Leaves
very thin 1 or 2 inches long, fruit small, f

stamens alternate with corolla, it rather belongs

kanzas, mistaken tlien for the Bumelia lanugi-
nosa, altho' so unlike B. rufa. Leaves biun-
cial, the young quite villose fuscate beneath,
flowers minute shut up in ovate acute form,
brown on unequal peduncles, fruit fuscate.
511, Decateles lycioides Raf. sylv. tel. 167
Bumelia do Authors — Florida to Louisiana, the
leaves are seldom lanceolate, but rather oblong,
uncial reticulate on both sides, apparently ever-
green : the fruit is very peculiar, green, size of
a Cherry, compressed smooth on both sides, but
edge broad with 3 circular ridges united by
transvere wrinkles ; the calix is persistent pat-
ent,with 5 unequal parts ovate obtuse, style short
acute. It is a shrub 4 to 8 feet high, branches
rugose or verrucose, spines conical valid, flow-

large tree 15 to 30 feet high, Ohio to Louisiana.
I have shown in my Atlantic Journal page 200,
the mistake committed by all Botanists except
Linneus, in blending this large tree of the west,
with the last shrub of the East : they differ in
leaves, flowers and fruits. Torrey has copied
the blunder of course and unnoticed mv correc-
tion of 1833.

Florida, the real holy tree of the Seminoles,

ing so difficult to dessicate — there are 2 others
G. yet blended in Aloes, — My Papilista with
clavate fl. type A, verrucosa — and my Strccosa-
ria with campanulate fl. type A. spicata &c.
This Century includes 12 N. G. whereof 6 now
first described,and 53 N. Sp. whereof 33 are now
described.
Therefore this second part or series of the Au-
TiKON contains the illustrations of as many as 91
New Genera, of which 31 are now first described
and nearly 220 new species, whereof 156 are
herein described for the first time.
I'.HS AUT. BOT.
Addition — I omitted im st%te at Article of Eu-
phorbia in 7th Century, that 1 had added 3 other
Genera to the long account of the G. mingled in
Euphorbia ; they are in my Sylva Telluriana of
1838, articles 708 to 715, G. Endoi$ila, Peccana
and Ditritra, all of Antilles, this last G. with 3
sp. is akin to Aplarina and Xamesuke.
Correction to 935, for previous Sm, dentata
Jaq. read previous Smilax liastata of Jaquin.
Add 763. if the generic name of Parmcwiicra
has been employed already for some other Genus,
of which I have a faint idea, then this cluster of
Solanums,that include the Patato, must be cal-
led Artorhiza meaning Bread-root, Raf.

New Gen. whereof 17 hitherto undescribed, and
the illustrations thereof 192,newsp. whereof 122
are described for the first time.
